Ingredients

• 3.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 1.25 cups Warm water (110°F/45°C)
• 2.25 teaspoons Instant yeast
• 1 tablespoon Sugar
• 2 teaspoons Salt
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 cup Canned tomato sauce
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder

• 30 slices Sliced dairy-free pepperoni
• 1.5 cups Dairy-free shredded mozzarella cheese

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine warm water, instant yeast, and sugar. Allow it to sit for 5 minutes until it becomes frothy.

Step 2

Add flour, salt, and olive oil to the yeast mixture. Mix until a dough begins to form.

Step 3

Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 8-10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.

Step 4

Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise for 1 hour in a warm place or until doubled in size.

Step 5

Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up.

Step 6

In a small bowl, combine tomato sauce, oregano, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Set aside.

Step 7

Once the dough has risen, punch it down and transfer it to a lightly floured surface. Roll it out into a 14-inch circle.

Step 8

Sprinkle cornmeal onto a pizza peel or the back of a baking sheet. Transfer the rolled-out dough onto the prepared peel or baking sheet.

Step 9

Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the dough, leaving a small border for the crust.

Step 10

Sprinkle dairy-free shredded mozzarella over the sauce.

Step 11

Arrange dairy-free pepperoni slices evenly on top of the cheese.

Step 12

Carefully slide the pizza onto the preheated pizza stone or directly onto the oven rack.

Step 13

Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese appears melted and bubbly.

Step 14

Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before slicing and serving.
